111683 - JS onMouseOver/onMouseOut events don't fire when using map

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 110072

(Core :: Layout, defect)

Description

[Brian Rozmierski]

From Bugzilla Helper:

When using JS onMouseOver/onMouseOut events to drive imageswapping in an <a 
href...> tag everything works fine. But add a <img> tag using a client-side 
image map and in defined areas of the map the JS won't fire.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
<a href="#" onMouseOut="MM_swapImgRestore()" onMouseOver="MM_swapImage
('News','','/Images/news2.jpg',1)"><img name="News" border="0" 
src="/Images/news1.jpg" width="85" height="115" usemap="#NewsMap"></a>

(#NewsMap is definaed properly w/o any onMouseOver/onMouseOut events)

Actual Results:  When the mouse enters/leaves any area UNDEFINED by the 
imagemap the JS will fire, but for defined areas the JS will not.

Expected Results:  Since there is no JS event associated with the imagemap, one 
would presume the JS would fire. If you have to associate the JS with every 
element of the imagemap you needlessly add to the size of the page.
